The first day of school~two months later!

Oh how I can't believe this day has finally arrived.  My babies have grown up and are going to school. I am so proud of the these two.  They have grown into two pretty incredible children.  We have been praying for them and their school experience.  I can say since we are two months out from this first day that they have been great!  Addison cried on the second day of school and crawled under the table and wouldn't come out.  Her teacher had to get the counselor. Who then brought her by the room I was subbing in and I had to talk her into to going to class.  That was the only day!  Thank goodness.  I couldn't handle many more days like that!
 My sweet Glade.  He is such the easy going child.  He walks right into class without letting any anxiety of nervousness show.  He has grown to love school and has made some great friends.  I love seeing his sweet spirit come through!


This is how Daddy and the kids kept me from breaking down and crying.  Silly pictures!






 
 They came home to balloons and we made special cookies.  Kissing hand cookies!

Let's play catch up...

I cannot believe it is almost halloween and I have not even put the first day of school pictures up yet.  I have a good excuse...well, at least I feel a good excuse!  I had all these kinds of great intentions the first week of school to get the blog updated, the house cleaned and organized and several other thing done.  It all started off great.  We got the kids off to school, Tim and I spent the morning running some errands and enjoying a good lunch just the two of us.  Then I got a call from the school asking if I could sub the next day.  I couldn't say no.  So here starts the reason I am so behind.  I have been subbing in a third grade class for almost the entire school year.  I think there have only been 5 or 6 days I have not been in this class.  I have to admit, I really love it.  The class is great, the curriculum is fun and Glade and Addison are loving school.  I only have a week and half left before the teacher will be back.  I am dreading it.  I really enjoy the class and have come to love it while I am at school!  The problem is when I get home...I am having a hard time adjusting to full time work.  It is such a balance that I have to get worked out.

So, stay tuned for lots and lots of pictures.  Starting with the first day of school, then Glade's soccer games and trips to Grammy and Pappy's house.
